About me

Credible, versatile voice actor/narrator with particular emphasis on conversational technical instruction. Quick turnaround, high attention to detail, available via ISDN and Source-Connect.

I began my voice-over endeavors as Production Director at a radio station in the New York City suburbs in 1974, and was hired three years later as in-house Narrator and Audio Producer for a business communications production agency. With wide multi-media experience, I’ve been providing narrations for Fortune 500 companies, and offering myriad vocal styles and characterizations for commercials and other applications ever since. My studio boasts CD-quality audio delivered in all popular audio formats.

Voice Details

Primary language

English – North America

Voice description and accents

Neutral North American accent. Deep, resonant, credible, authoritative, announcer, but also guy-next-door, warm, sincere, conversational, playful, wacky. A highly directable, excellent acting talent, a true ‘utility man.’

Gender and "ages"

Young Adult Male, Middle Age Male, Senior Male

Experience

An established, credible, extremely versatile talent, my experience spans over 30 years, with an equally impressive background as Audio Producer. This pairing creates a unique level of talent resulting in a high attention to detail.

From explaining to telephone technicians the workings of the first electronic and digital switching systems, to a fun, web-based tutorial on the principles of trajectory, through narrating surgical procedures, a broad mix of many Fortune 500 clients have come to rely on my easy, credible approach.

For credible narration, there is no one more qualified in this arena. My equal experience as Audio Producer benefits you because knowing what works for the ear contributes to a better product. An effective narration (or other audio production) will stand on its own, without the support of visuals.

In the commercial arena, my abilities range from straight-laced announcer to guy-next-door to wacky characters. Excellent skills in copy interpretation, acting, and comedic timing.
